vBeit .known that We, JOHN 0, FUER and residing at Williamsburg, in the countyiof Clermont and Stateof Ohio, have invented ai new and useful Improvement in Apparatus for Producing Illuminating-Gasfwhich iinprovemen't is fully-set forthin the following? speciieatiou and accompanying drawings- Our, invention relates to apparatu'sforgenother hydrocarbon liquids; and'it consists in parts hereinai't'er fully described and claimed. ln the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a plan View of amachinedfor manufacturing gas 'according to our invention.4 Fig. 2 is a 4 isa horizontal section of the generator.

v forms the initial 'burner `at 'one side, is pro- ,fvidedv with an upwardly-extendingspoonnotcominunieate with, this burner consisting of a'cylindrical `shell for-med with perforations in its pper'en'dand provided with' a pipe '13@ in line with pipe 7. It isfa'lso pro-k vided With a spreader-1 4 for distributing the dame beneath the generator. .g v

The cylinder B is provided Withair-inlet pipes 15 and an outlet-pipe 17, by which the gas, inixed with a suitable quantity of air, may 'be conducted to suitableI burners.

This pipe:

`17 is'p'rovided with la perforated diaphragm 1G for insuring `the-proper mixing of thefgas and air. `-In order toobviate the-tendency of the gas to condense, lWe provide a metal coverV 1S, which :conducts the Warm air radi-ated freniy the apparatus ugp around the pi pe -17.1

f The generator 5 consists of a rectangular4 casing' with Whichgpipc 4. communicates, and also -providedjvith vthe upper end. i

The nurnerall)a designates' a passage by Whichgasolene from pipe 4:' escapes into theA ,The numeral 2O designatcsa yalvefstern,

serewthreaded at 21 and located in thepipe 4.-

.This sterr at its-lowerend is' provided withan operating-crank 23 and at its upper end with a needle-valve 2i, Willich projects up intocylinder ll. -V

' The numeral 22 designates an inclined gas- 'passage leading from-the generator to the pi pe 19 above the screw-threaded portion 21' of the.

valve-stem. This valveste1-n is of smaller di aineter than pipe 4, so that the vgasolene can readily iiow to the generator.-

The operation is as follows: The sliding trough is slid outward until the arm 10 is in front of pipe 7. Valve 3 is then opened, admitting gasolene to the generator, which from IOO thence will flow down pipe G and into and out of pipe 7 the valve in the latter being opened. The gasolene will then strike arm 10 and be diverted into Ythe trough. Said valves are then closed and the gasolene in the trough ig.

nited, which will heat pipes G and 7 and vaporize the oil therein. The trough is then pushed inward, so that the arni l0 will be out of the path of pipe 7. The valves will be again opened, when the vapor from the said pipes will enter the burner 13 through pipe 13, carrying with it a proper quantity of air, and will be ignited at the top of the burner. This will cause the gasolene in the generator to be converted into gas, which will escape through the'inclined passage 22 and the needle-valve 24E into cylinder B, when it will be mixed with air and from whence it may escape through pipe 17 to suitable burners.

IIaving'thus fully described our invention, what we claim. is-

l. In an appar tus for making gas from liquid hydrocarbons the combination with the generator, the supplypipe, the horizontal -pipe connected therewith and the ,yalve therein, of the sliding trough, the upwardly-extending spoon-shaped arm, the main burner located below the generator and the pipe connected therewith, substantially as described.

2. In an apparatus for making gas from liquid hydrocarbons, the combination with the supply-pipe, the generator connected therewith, the angle-pipe connected with the generator, and the horizontal pipe connected therewith, provided with a valve of the plate connected with said angle and horizontal pipes, tie bracket secured thereto, formed with alongitudinal opening the sliding trough provided with notched lugs working in said opening, 4the upwardly extending spoonshaped arm, the main burner located beneath the generator and the pipe connected therewith, substantially as described.

3. In a machine for making gas from liquid hydrocarbons, the combination with supplypipe, the `generator connected therewith, the

`angle and horizontal pipes, and the valve, of

the plate connected with said angle and horizontal pipes, the bracket secured thereto formed with a longitudinal opening, the sliding trough having downwardly depending notched lugs'engaging with said opening, the' upwardly-extending spoon-shaped arm, the plate secured to said bracket having an opening therein, the perforated chimney, the burner located beneath. the generator and the pipe connected therewith, substantially as described.

4. In an apparatus for making gas from liquid hydrocarbons, the combination, with the supply-pipe, the generator connected therewith, the angle and horizontal pipes, the valve in the horizontal pipe, and the lateral lugs secured to said horizontal lugs, of the bracket having an opening therein, the sliding trough provided with notched lugs engaging with said dpenin gs, the upwardly-extending spoonshaped arm, the burner located beneath the generator and the pipe connected therewith, substantially as described.

5. In an apparatus for making gas from liquid hydrocarbons, the combination with the' cylinders, the supply-pipe, the generator ccnnected therewith, the inclined passage in thel generator, the pipe at the upper end of said generator, with which said passage communicates, the valve-stern screw-threaded near its upper end and the needle-valve, projecting into the upper cylinder, substantially as described. I

6. The combination with the upper and lower cylinders, the air-pipes connected with the upper cylinder, the escape-pipe provided with a perforated diaphragm, and the cover, of the generator, the supply and escape pipes therefor, the inclined passage leading to the escape-pipe, the screw-threaded valve-stem, the needle-valve projecting into the upper cylinder, the angle-pipe, the horizontal pipe connected therewith provided with a valve, the sliding trough, the upwardly-extending ar1n,the burner and pipe connected therewith, substantially as described.

In testimony that we claim the foregoing we have hereunto set our hands, this Sth day of July, 1807, in the presence of witnesses.
